Benjamin Netanyahu, at the opening ceremony of the Knesset, said: “The only permanent way to eliminate the existential threat posed by the Islamic Republic is the overthrow of the Ayatollahs’ government.”

Netanyahu added: “Despite the heavy blows we have struck the Islamic Republic, this government has not backed down from its plan to destroy Israel.”

He also said: “After we removed the immediate existential threat stemming from the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program, this government is trying to revive its nuclear program.”

The Israeli prime minister warned: “Soon, we will face international pressures to accept an Islamic Republic equipped with nuclear weapons and to continue the existence of a government that seeks the destruction of Israel.”

Netanyahu went on: “The pressures that have already begun will continue, with the aim of forcing us to retreat from our great achievements.”

He also said: “They will try to impose the establishment of a Palestinian state on us in the West Bank. A Palestinian state that would be supported by the Islamic Republic would be an even greater threat, and its goal is the destruction of Israel.”
